I received the information from my MIL so I don't know how accurate it is. I don't use this product (my daughter rarely ate baby food since I mashed up my own and now she's almost 2 so eating most solids.)

Mother in law writes: "I don't think you are using this but thought you might want to know or such Important alert for all parents. Nestle is asking everyone to return all banana baby food expiring 2012; they may contain pieces of glass. Please copy and paste for all moms and babies safety..bar code 7613033089732...."

I wouldn't worry, unless you live in France.Nestle France has launched an immediate investigation after recalling more than 30,000 containers of baby food over fears of glass contamination.

The food giant said it had ordered the recall as a precautionary measure after a mother discovered a piece of glass in a container of its P’tit Pot brand of baby food.

The company said some 34,000 pots of the product made in the same batch were being recalled and advised consumers who had purchased the affected run not to use them.

The problem is confined to France with the recall centred on banana flavoured P’tit Pot sold in lots of two 80 gram jars. No other cases of glass contamination have been reported to date, said the company today.

The bar codes on the recalled products are 7 613033089732, with an expiry date of October 2012. The batch number is L 10980295.

Nestle said that no other products within the P’tit Pot range had so far been affected.

I just googled this and it is only in France but I know Circle of moms has members from all over the world. Scary to think this would happen, I also made my own baby food and after seeing this I am glad I never had to worry about something like this.
